We had the pleasure of interviewing Mareux over Zoom video! Opening up his world even wider, critically acclaimed darkwave artist Mareux shares a new single entitled "Little Lies" today. Listen to "Little Lies" via Revolution/Warner Records. Mareux's forthcoming album, Lovers From The Past, is out May 5. "Little Lies" layers neon keys above a head-nodding bass line and icy production. Surging through this sonic backdrop, Mareux's deep intonation bellows and beckons with an entrancing and engaging refrain. Emblematic of his haunting idiosyncratic sound, the track melts into a transfixing ebb and flow. Urging a closer listen, "Little Lies" might just harbor a bigger truth… In the wake of the title track "Lovers From The Past." Mareux notably averages over 5.6 million monthly listeners on Spotify—unprecedented for darkwave. It hints at the scope of his ever-expanding world on Lovers From The Past, check out the full tracklisting below. Mareux set the stage for the forthcoming project with "Night Vision." The track has already generated over half-a-million streams and counting. RAIN hailed it as "deeply confessional," while Post-Punk.com christened it a "Lynchian dreamscape." The accompanying music video stars RuPaul's Drag Race's fan-favorite contestant Gottmik. In support of the album, Mareux will launch an extensive headlining global tour. The tour will kick off in May following Mareux's performances at Coachella and make stops in Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Chicago, London, Warsaw, Berlin and more. "Night Vision" landed in the wake of Mareux's 2022 tracks "Glass" [feat. King Woman] and "The Perfect Girl," which caught fire on TikTok with billions of views on the sound itself. Not long after, the song gathered hundreds of millions of streams across platforms with north of 214 million on Spotify alone. The winner of RuPaul's Drag Race Violet Chachki notably starred in the song's music video, amassing over 12 million YouTube views. ABOUT MAREUX: As Mareux, musician and producer Aryan Ashtiani makes music filled with stories of unrequited yearning and the ghosts of lovers' past. Even before going viral in 2021 with "The Perfect Girl" (his interpretation of a 1987 song by The Cure), the Los Angeles-based artist has been steadily building an international cult following, from Eastern Europe to South America. After more than a decade of developing his post-punk and darkwave-inspired dance style of piercing synths, cavernous vocals, and forlorn melodies, he is finally unveiling his debut album, Lovers From the Past, via Warner Records/Revolution Records. It's a collection of sinister, yet magnetic tracks that explore heartbreak and disillusionment. Having helped spark a resurgence of interest in post-punk and darkwave among a new generation online, Mareux finds himself at the forefront of the latest innovative strain of goth music.
